Kilometre markers, province by province

Border wait times →

Canada counts in kilometres, not miles — and each province posts its markers a little differently. Ontario, Quebec, British Columbia, Alberta, Nova Scotia, and Northwest Territories km posts are live in the MileCheck app, and province by province we’re writing the driver’s guide to how each one’s markers actually work — the corridors, the signage, and the quirks. Green-bordered provinces have their guide.
